I just looked up the Vale score from today and as soon as I saw it I went " yesssss get in" Does that make me a very bad man? Yes it does actually..... News like that should be greeted with a "yes" like this...... "YESSSSSSSSSSSSS, GET THE FUCK IN!!! You weren't far off, but still needs a little more practice!!!

I take an interest in all local matters sorry if that upsets you. Firstly I wasn't quoting you so I don't see how your comment applies? Secondly I find a comment in a 3 page thread about Vale being obsessed quite ironic. Edit- 4 fucking pages! Dear or dear. 4 pages of people ripping the piss. They are fair game.

I applaud your Christian charity to them, but I'm a twat and hope that they go bombing through the non leagues until they find a level they deserve. Bentilee lads n dads sounds about right. Oh and if reading about them offends you so much, how about you stop reading the thread?

I was pointing out the irony of them being obsessed with us, fuck reading the thread but there' a singular comment. There's 4 pages here. I really couldn't give a dusty fuck about ripping into them, though I've always thought we should set or eyes on clubs that are actually relevant to us, but that's beside the point. Northy isn't the first person to say they're obsessed with us and he won't be the last. But the levels of hypocrisy on here when any Vale thread regularly reaches 5-10 pages is quite funny. Enjoy your evening!

I think Brown and Co at the Fail are doing an excellent job, and hopefully they'll continue in the current direction for a few seasons yet.

Can just hear " The Wooders" fans checking the 2018/19 fixture list and wondering where is Port Vale?Somewhere in the Welsh Valleys next to an old defunct pit head. There's an old rusty caravan parked next to the pitch. Wild dogs run amok. Feral shoeless children kick an old ball of rags around the bald, grassless pitch, dodging dog turds and empty beer cans. And it rains incessantly.

But then again, in Burslem.....

As much fun as it is to laugh at the Vale's current plight, and despite all the replies I'll nodoubt get saying shit like "They're not our rivals", "It's a no win situation" blah blah blah, I'd fucking love it if the FA Cup 3rd draw* came out as Port Vale v Stoke City. *Assuming they get that far! I would prefer it at our place if it had to happen but Jesus imagine we lost, would never hear the end of it! And if we win they will claim some moral victory about value of squads! Either way it's a no win situation but my god shoving 4 past them would be fantastic

Well, I won't be doing any handwringing for them. I consider myself for the most part what the usual Neanderthal fucknuckles would call a bleeding heart libéral on most issues. And rightly so. But Fuck 'em and the wheezy lame nag they hobbled in on. Sew the arse back in your trousers and fuck off.

Vanarama Club Guide 18/19:
Port Vale is a football club situated a few miles away from the home of Premier League Stoke City, which supporters will be more aware of.
History: Just like some clubs in Eastern Europe were established by workers of a specific trade or industry (such as Dynamo Moscow and the police), Port Vale were set up as the team of the area's unemployed and down at heel community, having been formed in a pub in the local area of Longport following a rather shit game of Cribbage when everyone was pissed on Mild.
Ground: Vale Park is about five times too big for the club who play there, although the club have embraced the empty, sparse atmosphere which prevails. The pitch is so shit that Vale can call off a match at the drop of a hat if they have injuries after just the slightest hint of rain, so if you're one of the Bromley Travelling Army, you have been warned. Vale are proud holders of the Most Different Coloured Seats in a Sporting Arena Award, and it's the only stadium where pus-yellow seats sit cheek by jowl with psychedelic purple. They should run out to Jimi Hendrix, man.
Local attractions/things to do: If you're travelling by train, disembark at Longport station if they can be arsed to open it that week and take the opportunity to sample the delights of Newcastle Street, the main thoroughfare into Vale's part of town, which knocks the Reeperbahn into a cocked hat. You'll be able to get hold of anything you want there, from a plate of magic mushrooms to genital warts.
Honours: They beat Spurs in a cup match in 1987 but never talk about it.
Little known fact: After Vale beat local giants Stoke in a cup tie in the early 90s during the club's glory days, the club commissioned a limited edition t-shirt commemorating this notable achievement. These collectables can trade for literally pence online.

As much as it would be funny to watch the vile go down it would be a shame to lose the record of being the smallest city in England to have 2 professional teams in the top 4 divisions.

It is a well kept secret that the mine shafts at Vale Park offer a quick and direct route to Australia.
Billy Bell kept it quiet until it was impossible to hide the truth when the shafts were capped a few years ago. Local workers were bribed to keep quiet by generous offers, firstly refusing a free season ticket for life, then declining a few free tickets, and subsequently accepting 50 quid cash in hand. The Burslemites were astounded that more than a weeks wages was on offer to keep schtum.
Smurfs plan is to run the club into the ground, a strategy that despite some opposition for a handful of locals, looks destined to play out. Once the demise is complete he plans to groundshare with Knypersley Vic's as the clubs head in different directions.
The former Vale Park will be redeveloped as a high speed European transport hub to our antipodean acquaintances. Smurf has already acquired the rights to open a Walkabout in Burslem and a year round, all weather ski hill in Tunstall to create employment for 3 Australian youths. Economic impact will double in Burslem, up to 5,000 GBP.
To reflect this innovative development the Port Vale coat of arms will be updated. The scythe wil become a boomerang and the diametrically opposed pots will become a can of XXXX and a bottle of VB respectively.
Port Vale fans will be heartbroken at the news but consolation will be gained through an offer of free one way tickets to Australia. Smurf has been heard to mutter "I'll be glad to see the back of the moaning bastards".
Port Vale will run out to Waltzing Matilda from the 2019-2020 season.

THAT man city game I was at my cousins first borns christening and I was asked to be his God parent on the day. Coming put of the church he thanked me and said "I'll see you back at the club". I felt a right twat saying not likely,I'm off stoke.
